Pennsylvania voters helped President Donald Trump win the White House in 2024. As he marked 100 days in office, NBC10’s Lauren Mayk checked in with voters in the battleground state. She talked to voters – those who supported him and those who did not – about what’s happened so far and what these first 100 days have been like for them. Her conversations also include federal workers who have been impacted by cuts to the federal workforce.
